Digg Dugg

Every time I read something about Digg I can't help but think back to the wasted days of playing Dig Dug or Dugout as it's titled in the Java Applets on Al Gore's wondermous Intertubenets.

I get beside myself, I've talked to a couple of people who are interested in adding Digg This links to their blog posts on Movable Type Blogs. Wordpress users should be able to use the plug-in, if'n that doesn't work let me know, I'll update this post.

Anyhow, to add the link you'll of course have to add some code to your template.

First things first be sure to have a functioning backup of your template.
I'm a highly trained professional idiot so I don't make backups when I'm toying with my site, but don't be like uncle phinny kids, learn from his mistakes and mishaps. Otherwise your blog could suck too.

So if you'd like the code it's below, you'll have to figure out the best place to add it too your template, that or send an e-mail and I'll tell you where to stick it.
